Posting Error

[Former Member]

Hi

i am getting following posting error:

Account assignment objects are incorrect. No substitution is possible.

Message no. 3G209

Diagnosis

The account assignment object check showed that, from the point of view of CO, the specified account assignment is not valid, and cannot be replaced by the employee's master cost center or a substitute cost center. This item cannot be posted.

No substitute cost center maintained

Message no. KI091

Diagnosis

In payroll accounting, data cannot be posted from a CO point of view neither to the CO account assignment stored in the HR accounting data nor to the master cost center to be posted alternatively. In this case, the system searches Customizing for an alternative cost center to be stored for each company code and business area. This alternative cost center is not stored for your company.

System Response

The document cannot be posted from a CO point of view.

Procedure

Store an alternative cost center in Payroll Accounting Customizing. Additionally, you can check why no data can be posted to the master cost center of the employee, and take corresponding steps.

I have maintained Cost Center for employee in Master data. This error is coming only for Expense GL account and not for Balancesheet GL accounts.

Thanks in advance

Hi everybody,

to elaborate on this topic, a question on how to proceed after substitute CC has been used. I presume that posting to accounting will continue and all erroneous cost centre assignments will be posted to the substitute CC (being a "catch all" for errors).

Now my questions are:

How will the correction of this take place in CO?

How will the correctino of this take place in HR?

In the end, we want to have the costs posted to the correct cost centre and not to the substitute cost centre. Will this automatically be corrected when you change the cost centre assignment of the employee retroactively?

Thanks for all feedback.

Best regards,

Jeroen de Boer

Hi All,

Cost center is not picking for particular G/L account? If it is not picking for particular to one G/L account then check with your FI consultant.

Hi

If you want a default cost center to be updated for these expense GL accounts, then update the default cost center through transaction code OKB9 for the Expese GL account for the Company code.

First check i cost centre is assigned to your employee. If not please assign cost centre to position or org unit assigned to employee.

Hi,

System is asking alternative cost center for your company code.

Please create the a new cost center, then assign to your company code in the table of TKA3G.

Or else go to path:

Payroll-> Payroll country ->Posting to financial accounting->Activities in the AC-System->Set up fixed cost postings and substitute cost centers->Set up substitute cost centers .

For each country text will vary. but fixed substitute cost center name will be appear.

Ask to your FI guys then they will create a new cost center.

For fixed cost center assign cost center to your cost element.(V_TKA30). Or else you can create one cost center using Ks01, or else create cost center using OKEON under your cost center hierarchy.

Good luck

Hi,

I think they may not assinged the GL to the cost center.

Pls ask the FI people.

Hi,

Goto SPRO -> Payroll India -> reporting for Posting Payroll Results to accounting -> Activities in AC system ->Assign substitute cost centres.

Maintain this for your company code.
